Grandpa Jiang Er also thought of his brother-in-law who had been trying to dig a tunnel because of Jiang Hexi's suggestion that he wanted to dig a tunnel. He only knew that he could do anything and would go around all day long and dig holes to point holes.
Jiang Hexi hurriedly said that he wanted to ask this person to help with the work.
Grandpa Jiang Er said, "Then your second grandma will go back to her parents' house today, and I will call you tomorrow."
"Okay, that's all my hard work for the second grandma."
Next, Grandpa Jiang Er recommended a stonemason to Jiang Hexi. The stonemason was in the neighboring village. Because he was worried that the stonemason would kill him, Grandpa Jiang Er asked Uncle Jiang to accompany Jiang Hexi to hire someone to work. caset
The stonemason's surname is Shi, and people nearby call him the big stonemason. His family is the eldest, and the whole family learns to be a stonemason business.
After Jiang Hexi explained his purpose, the stonemason immediately agreed to come over.
As for the wages, Jiang Hexi gave them thirty cents a day to pay, and the stonemason promised to take his brothers and apprentices in the house, and would go over to help with the work tomorrow.
Because the stonemason's house was selling stones, Jiang Hexi looked at it and bought another batch of stones to open the foundation. The smile on the stonemason's face became more and more sincere.
After Jiang Hexi went to the nearby kiln burners to book a batch of blue bricks and tiles, he returned to the village.
Blue bricks are not cheap, and they cost five cents per yuan. This is why the villagers cannot afford to build brick and tile houses. If Jiang Hexi had not made a lot of money, she would not have dared to build brick and tile houses easily.
When we returned to the village, the government officials had already arrived in the village.
A headmaster and several constables came from the government. These people looked around in the village and investigated the situation at Lizheng's house.
As he was talking about the whole thing, the head of the captain answered a few words and planned to take the constable away quickly.
After all, all the horse thieves ran away, and the people riding were all high-quality horses, coming and going like the wind, and they had weapons in their hands. Where can I find someone?
Of course, if the horse thief is really still in the village, it would not be the captain who brought a few listless captains to the village, but the hundreds or thousands of households who were stationed in the army brought their troops to suppress the bandits.
The horse thief is not stupid either. He knows that he can't fight head-on with the regular army, so he just gets a vote and runs away.
When the officers and soldiers were found, the horse thief had already run away.
The headmaster responded a few words and after doing a face-saving project, he planned to return to the yamen to submit a job.
At this time, the affected villagers rushed over and surrounded the captain's head, and burst into tears, crying, "Sir, wuwu, look at our village, it's so miserable, we
The village was burned, and everyone didn't know how to survive, wuwu..."
The implication is that can the government provide some compensation?
The captain was a little impatient and said in a cold tone, "I know you are living a miserable life, but who told you that you are a pariah on the border? Get out of here, don't hinder me from going back to work!"
As he spoke, the captain showed a long sword with a cold light.
On the side, Liu Ergen was really anxious. His family really had no surplus food. He suddenly took the initiative and said crying, "Official, our family really can't survive. Our house was burned.
The headmaster sneered, looked at Liu Ergen from a high place, and said, "Isn't you still alive? Why are there no way to survive?"
"What...what...what does it mean?" Liu Ergen was stunned.
The headmaster said, "Where are your children?"
Liu Ergen subconsciously pointed at Liu Hongxing and Liu Snail standing beside him.
The headmaster looked at it with a smile and said, "No, good, they are all good people. Old boy, you are lucky. Your daughter is going to sell it to Yingchunyuan, and your son is going to Yulin Tower. Good, you will definitely get a big shot.
Money, hahaha!”
A constable looked at Liu Hongxing with a stingy look and said, "This little lady is so beautiful. If I go to Yingchunyuan, I will definitely take care of the business!"
Liu Ergen's face turned blue with anger, and his body trembled, "You... you are shameless!"
"Dog thing, what did you say?"
As he spoke, the headmaster picked up the long knife and chopped Liu Ergen's thigh.
It was also a blessing that Liu Ergen ran fast, otherwise he would have cut it right away.
The headmaster sneered, looked at the way the villagers made way, and then he raised his head and turned around and left.
After the captain left, the villagers could no longer help but cry.
These people are just survivors on the border. Most of them were several generations ago. Because their fellow tribesmen committed a crime, they were implicated and demoted to the border. The real main culprit was beheaded as early as the capital.
Through generations of efforts, they also transformed from sinners to civilians, but they still never left the border for the rest of their lives.
This is a group of poor people who cannot see hope for life.
The people from the government left, but the villagers became more and more depressed.
The government seems to be ignorant of this matter, and the horse thief will have a second time when he has harassment for the first time.
Of course, the most important thing is that if the villagers don’t find a way, they will be winter, and they are afraid that they will not be able to survive.
When Jiang Hexi saw this, he couldn't help but sigh.
Finally, she said, "Dear fellow villagers, I plan to build a house tomorrow. If you have time, you can come to my house to help. No one in labor costs 30 cents a day and can make two meals."
As soon as these words were said, villagers immediately signed up in the crowd.
Then Liu Ergen also took the opportunity to sign up.
Seeing this, Jiang Hexi recorded the names of the people one by one and said, "Thank you for helping everyone, but the ugly words are ahead. You can't be lazy. If you are lazy, I can only invite others."
Because Jiang Hexi paid a high salary, everyone nearby responded and even promised that they would not be lazy. This matter was settled.
In the afternoon, my second grandmother’s family, Uncle Liang.
Uncle Liang is a middle-aged man with a small figure, but his eyes are particularly energetic.
With the recommendation of his second grandfather, he and Jiang Hexi had a good conversation at his second grandfather's house.
Uncle Liang was full of brilliance and said, "Girl, you just want to dig a tunnel, right?"
"yes!"
Uncle Liang said with indescribable enthusiasm, "Oh, you're looking for the right person. It's not me that I'm talking big. In this ten miles of Yucheng, no one can do this underground job well except me."
Uncle Liang has been fighting for a lifetime. He never thought that one day he could use his skills to do things in his business. He was extremely happy and felt that his life had found a goal to strive for.
Immediately I was going to see the foundation of Jiang Hexi's house.
Jiang Hexi and Jiang Er's grandfather also brought the person there.
Uncle Liang looked at the foundation and looked at it, and felt a little clear in his heart, saying, "Girl, don't worry, I will arrange someone to press the foundation tomorrow, so that no matter how many holes you dig underground, the house will be stable.
.”
"That's all my hard work."
Both sides made a happy decision.
Early the next morning, Jiang Hexi started to repair the house.
The villagers were in trouble and wanted to make money for the winter, so many people came to help repair the house.
Jiang Hexi drew a picture of a Chinese courtyard house in advance and told him about the requirements for the house he wanted to build.
The stonemason and uncle Liang's eyes were shiny when they looked at the drawings. The drawings were marked too detailed. As long as they were a wise man, they would know how to repair the house. The most important thing is that if the house is repaired, it would be absolutely beautiful.
!
Although it is not luxurious, according to the drawings, the house will definitely be as comfortable as it looks at.
The nearby villagers' houses are built at will, just to shelter from wind and rain. No one has ever thought of building such a good house.
Uncle Liang could not even remove his eyes when he saw this drawing and said, "This house needs to be repaired, it will definitely look good!"
He became more and more excited to work. After inspecting the land and knowing that he could build a tunnel, he directed the villagers to lay the foundation for the house.
Laying the foundation of the house is a big deal. Jiang Hexi deliberately killed two chickens and built a stove with a stone on the side. The work that came to help smelled the scent of the chicken, and it felt so exciting.
The second uncle Jiang Changyao and his cousin Jiang Dazhuang came over, with a deep eyes and said sarcastically, "Oh, He Xi is so capable. He has money to build a big house. I will lend you some money to spend money to your second uncle and cousin!
”
Jiang Hexi sneered, "Don't the second uncle and cousin sell chestnuts in the city? Is the second uncle and cousin capable? How can I borrow money from me, an orphan?"
When Uncle Jiang heard this, the gloom on his face flashed, and he paused. Uncle Jiang snorted and said, "Don't think that if a wild man is on the list, you can bully your tribe members. Just wait, but they're just going to be the one who's just going to be.
It’s just to play with you. You are a broken flower and a broken willow. Which man dares to marry you in the future?"
Jiang Hexi sneered, "When it comes to bullying his tribe, I want to learn some tricks from my second uncle and cousin!"
"Sharp teeth! Humph, wait, see what your end is!"
The father and son sarcastically sarcastically, turned their heads and "quenched" saliva in the direction of Jiang Hexi, and then turned their heads and left.
And in the afternoon of that day, Jiang Hexi was circulating in the village, and the rumors about an old man in the city were listed.
Jiang Hexi didn't care about this, just pretended not to hear it. Anyway, those who were the Qing Dynasty were in the Qing Dynasty!
As for Jiang Erbang’s family, there is only one ability to deal with her.
However, some troublesome women in the village saw that such gossip came out and saw that Jiang's wife had money to repair the house, so they were all inquiries about which old man Jiang Hexi had hooked up with in the city! And, in this rumor
How can an old man have power and power? How much money did he give Jiang Hexi?
Among them, Liu Ergen's wife Li came to Jiang Hexi to find out the news.
Li looked up and down at Jiang Hexi and said with a smile, "Hexi is a capable and successful person. I don't know what kind of big shot that adult is? Is it a divine Hexi or a dew all night?"
Jiang Hexi's face turned gloomy when he heard this.
The so-called dictionary is considered to be the woman that rich and powerful men find outside for a month. They give a fixed amount of silver every month, while dew sleeps casually for a woman and gives her a few money to send her away.
